The mission of our lean distributed team is described here: https://blog.parse.ly/post/4736/mission/?utm_campaign=hn_aug... We happily skip commutes by working out of our ergonomic home offices. Here's a photograph of mine running two full-screen Parse.ly dashboards on my monitors: https://flic.kr/p/v1NZ73 As a frontend engineer, you'll join the small sub-team that owns the core experience of Parse.ly’s customer-facing SaaS dashboard. You'll have an opportunity to ship new features to customers -- working in JavaScript/ES, HTML5, CSS3, Python3, and some other great technologies. For this role, you’ll need to be strong in JavaScript; have a keen sense of good design; have experience with web/mobile frameworks; and enjoy D3.js. For bonus points, you'd develop some comfort level implementing native iOS or Android applications. In short, we're looking for people who enjoy crafting beautiful user experiences & products, and who also enjoy shipping to customers regularly. You need to be technical enough to do real Python/Django programming (possibly after some training/practice); to build up a portfolio of real D3.js visualizations; to navigate JS frameworks like Angular1 & React; to evaluate open source code; and to develop some experience with native mobile development. Join us to build the world's best content analytics dashboard. Apply at work@parsely.com with a couple paras describing why you're interested, a link to any portfolio/code you think is relevant, and/or your resume or LinkedIn profile. Make sure to mention HN and the "Frontend Engineer" role. Also, please list your timezone, working hours, and location. Note that though we can hire from most locations, we will prioritize those near US_Eastern or GMT timezones, due to our current team working hours.
